Spinner Results
- A spinner has five colors: red, blue, green, yellow, and purple
- The spinner sections are not equal sizes
- The spinner was spun several times
- The results are shown in a table
Frequency Table
- Red: 9 spins
- Blue: 18 spins
- Green: 8 spins
- Yellow: 6 spins
- Purple: 7 spins
Probability of Yellow
- Total spins: 9 + 18 + 8 + 6 + 7 = 58 spins
- Yellow spins: 6
- Probability of yellow: 6/58 = 0.1034
- Probability of yellow as a percent: 10.34%
- Probability of yellow to nearest whole number: 10%
